it was johnson's twin?
cloning technology?
or a story i just now made up:
since humans are required to activate the rings, and johnson would have been the last known surviving human to the sentinals, it makes sense that the sentinals/guilty spark would have then taken it upon themselves to preserve his life so he could potentialy activate the other rings. so, a random sentinal/spark shows up and teleports him out of the blast radius of autumn. (why not? you see them teleporting in halo 3, and we know guilty spark and gravemind could teleport chief around at will)
thus, outside the autumn's initial blast he could have survived on one of the mammoth chunks of ring still intact. many of which would potentially have the mass to sustain an atmosphere, even in the broken state. (even if it didnt, the ring was built with massive gates and quarantine zones everywhere, separating the segments in airtight compartments. not all could have been destroyed.)
spark then goes off flying into space (as seen in the final cutscene) makes contact with humans using data he gathered from the autumns library. spark then either arranges for whatever forerunner forces remain to reunite johnson with these humans or convinces these humans to go to the halo wreckage and pick up johnson (counterfeit emergency beacon perhaps?).
he does all this in the hopes johnson can convince humans of the threat of the flood, and get them to do something about it. guilty spark knows other rings exist, and his primary function is still to get them activated. to do this he knows human cooperation will be required.
slightly afterward, spark gets captured by the covenant while once again flying aimlessly through space. then halo 2 starts.
or you could read the book first strike......cool idea tho!
